I agree with the whole new paradigm aspect, but we also have an opportunity to do something really cool in the retro sense.
I have never owned a Collins S-line or a pair of Gold Dust Twins, but if I wanted to operate some vintage hardware, just slap on a skin and you are off to the races. There is not reason not to do both. I suspect on the specs are published, skins will start coming out of the woodwork.

The SDR is new, fresh and unconventional. Don't make it like all the others. For those that want the skins, OK.. But I don't want to go back to the conventional." TO WHICH I ADD A HEARTY AMEN!!!
